Lompoc zoning typically allows fences up to 6 feet in side and rear yards and 3–4 feet in front yards, with corner sight-visibility limits. Taller fences require a permit or variance.
Fence height in Lompoc depends on where the fence sits on the lot. Side and rear yard fences typically top out around 6 feet, while front-yard fences are held to roughly 3 to 4 feet so they don't wall off the streetscape. Corner lots carry an extra restriction: fences near the intersection must stay low enough to preserve sight visibility for drivers. Anything taller than the standard limits needs a permit or variance from the city before it goes up, so measure and check your zone first.
